Bastian's Birthday and Party-ness

Bastian was sick sick sick on his birthday! Actually he was sick the day before and 4 days afterward! The poor guy had a headache, body aches, super high fever and he was vomiting! He was pretty pathetic and he made it even worse by asking me "Does everyone get sick when they turn 4?" He thought this was a normal part of the aging process!

Once he was finally feeling a little better we had some friends over for pizza and cake. I dont have any photos of that.. Sorry!

On Saturday we were finally able to celebrate his birthday! We have been wanting to go canoeing for quite some time so we finally went! It was so much fun!

Tony manned the back of the canoe and Bastian held down the middle!

Even though he almost fell in a few times, Gabriel had fun too! As long as he had a stick!

The best way to entertain kiddos in a canoe is to give them a stick and then let them play in the sludge!

Bastian kept pulling the stick out to check out the slime! This was not the cleanest water ever!

Whatta MAN!

The state park that we canoed at had an AWESOME water park! So we played there after canoeing, it was a great idea! We had so much fun!

Sweet baby Gman! I had a hard time getting photos of him, he never stopped moving!

Bastian enjoyed getting to hit people with water!

About 3 minutes into our drive home, this is what our back seat looked like! They were exhausted!
